DME Beach Volleyball

Dates: February 21st – April 22nd

5:30-7:00 PM

This will be a program where we do our best to help grow Beach Volleyball in Florida's Volusia County High School area.

With only Varsity Beach programs in many of the high schools, this program will allow High School athletes to get more kids playing and less time sitting and watching.

The program will be 3 weeks of training 2 nights a week and then 4 weeks of 1 night of training and one night of matches. This will cumulate with Saturday Playoffs and Finals.

Athletes will be attempted to be sorted by high schools they attend, but if not enough from each school register, we will merge kids to form “teams”.

We will attempt to have at least 10 kids per team.
